The Tong Pooh Sisters Return In Capcom’s New Strider Game

Grandmaster Melo is back for Strider and he is bringing the three Tong Pooh sisters in the game too. These martial arts masters are enemies in earlier Strider games, but the team is a little different.

Tong Pooh is still the leader of the group and she uses a sword.

Bei Pooh is actually the oldest sister. She’s armed with two small blades.

Nang Pooh is the youngest and fights with a spear.

What’s interesting is Nang Pooh replaces Sai Pooh as the youngest sister in the other Strider games. Players will also fight Xi Wangmu, the master of the three sisters.

Strider comes out for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 on February 22, 2014. The retail PS3 version includes a code to download the PsOne version of Strider 1 & 2 and a theme as bonus content. Capcom will also release Strider for Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC in 2014.

I am SOOOOO grabbing the retail version if it has the first two here in the states. My only question is if they do have it, will it all be on one Blu ray disc?

edit: Nm on the last part, reread.

3 sisters to the right…it all makes sense now

The game needs more new bosses… Sequels start feeling like remakes this way, That was my main issue with with Strider 2 too, but at least it had 2 or 3 cool new bosses (Metall Hengst being my favorite of the new bosses). To much rehash and less new stuff combined with the less cool exotic stages… Osman was the only real sequel Strider had.

Is the February 22 date a mistake? That’s a Saturday, so would be a very odd release date…
